This generally sounds good.  One minor concern I have is how this would
interact with the ability to run the test suite in a jail.  This is
imperfectly supported today (IIRC ~350 failures on amd64), but it's
quite userful for testing sweeping userspace-only tests like libsys and
I'd love to see support expanded and improved (failures fixed or tests
skipped, poudriere jail support, etc).

Thanks,
Brooks
